When the Yankees found out back in 2018 that their star shortstop Didi Gregorius was going to need Tommy John surgery, nobody really knew when exactly he was expected to return. Recovery time from this procedure for position players is normally around six to eight months, so the team expected him to return around the All-Star break. However, to the surprise of most, Gregorius has shown no signs of pain and the Yankees have already said they can expect him to return as early as June.
In fact, Gregorius has already begun his extended spring training!
